SACRAMENTO /California Newswire/ — California Recovery Task Force Director Herb K. Schultz today issued the following statement in response to the Bureau of State Audits report on the Department of Community Services and Development America Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) Weatherization Program:
“The Task Force has proactively worked with the Department of Community Services and Development to improve internal spending controls and streamline contract approvals that the initial audit findings found to be inadequate. To date, the department has weatherized 210 units with an additional 790 in the pipeline, putting the department well on track to reach its goal by September 2010. The Recovery Task Force is committed to making sure that California does not leave one dollar of Recovery Act funding on the table.”
